Driving out solo to meet family for the Saturday game. Burned up points at the Hampton Inn roach coach by the stadium.


The Hampton right by the park is super nice

We were on a Spring Break road trip to visit family in Nebraska this year and picked my son up at the Omaha airport. As you probably know, you drive right past CS stadium. "Home of the College World Series!" Sure wish we could go back but work commitments and scheduled summer vacation won't allow. Hopefully this is the first of many to come!!

Seems hit or miss from reviews. Says on site parking but that it also fills up. I'm not picky though. Just need a place to sleep and shower. I save up points from work trips just for stuff like this.

Will be there!

Been going to Omaha for work for over 20 years. Been to CWS 4 times, but never when the Ags were playing. The stars aligned this year. Son is playing in the 14U Slumpbuster Tournament so we were committed anyway. Now that the Ags are playing, it will be even sweeter!

Fairfield in fremont is about an hour drive and it's a nice hotel. I lived their for 6 months. Also check out the west side of omaha.


You haven't lived until you stay EAST of Omaha!

I'll be there! I live in Papillion, so about 15 minutes from downtown.
I lived in Papillion for 5 years in the 70's when my dad was stationed at Offutt. He was an Arizona State grad and the Sun Devils were in the CWS almost every year we lived there. He took my brother and me to a ton of games at Rosenblatt. I still have a few baseballs covered with player signatures. Great memories of Papillion and the CWS.

Downtown Lincoln to stadium area is a hair under an hour. Drove it dozens of times from my house in central Lincoln to the airport. Eastern Lincoln/Waverly is more like 45 minutes, but I never looked for hotels there. AVOID Lincoln airport area hotels> dumps. Downtown/Haymarket or suburban hotels are all fine.

I need a hotel room for two badly. Anyone out there have a lead on one? Want to transfer a resi? Please?
I stayed in Lincoln in 2022 and will be doing so again this year. Hotels are not very expensive and only 30 minutes from Omaha. Plus, cool college town with University of Nebraska being there. Highly recommend it


Booked room in Lincoln. Looking forward to seeing other Ags out and about! Thanks all for the tip. It's saving us a lot of money.

Omaha A&M club does an outstanding job of hosting. In 2017 it was at the Hilton patio area. Don't know if it'll be in the same or different spot this go round.

This bar has figured out how to tap into stupidity for sure. Good for them, bad on everyone else.

The bar is actually pretty nice. Went to a private tailgate there last year, good atmosphere.

Too packed for my liking… you can't even move inside usually. But they donate to charity on the shots so not all bad.

Fair - I went to the private room/patio and it was before the first game of the day. It was packed then, so I'm sure it only gets more crowded.

We'll be arriving Saturday afternoon and only there for the afternoon and the game, and then headed back to Minnesota after the game. With that being said will only be in Omaha for the afternoon before the game. Would like to check out the area by the stadium but will it be insane Saturday afternoon and impossible to eat/enjoy? Or a must visit? Thnx in advance!

Should be ok to walk around and enjoy buy shirts early they sell out of polos.

The Drover steak house is the best steak I have had it's not close to the stadium
